Favourite quote nowadays, taken off the campaign…
You might be wondering 'why is she talking about a campaign?'
Relax, I just wanted to talk about my vacation….
Nothing like a good holiday to relieve you of stress….{well, sort of}
My holiday this time around is spent with family and my dad's friends…
This time, instead of the usual 'balik kampung' we added in a stretch, spending a whole week and 2 extra days at 3 different states… Perak, Kelantan, and Terengganu…
PERAK DARUL RIDZUAN!!
It's my parents' home state [does this term even exist???]
We spend 2 days at my Mak Su's house in Ipoh…
1 day spent preparing for my cousins' wedding..
And another day for my her wedding reception~~~the colour theme is purple and pink~~
*sorry, my camera died on me* T_T *have to fix it*
So, no photo's of her wedding dress and the couple…[don't kill me~~~]
The next day was spent at my mom' side at Kg. Changkat Chermin…
[loosely translated as village of high ground of mirrors]
Don't ask.. I didn't name the village…
But still, it's a very unique name isn't it??
Back to the story, we are at Kg. Changkat Chermin because of a family reunion~~~
A bonus to this would be seeing my cousins, the negative side, there are some of my relatives I didn't want to see…TT_TT
So, urmm… lucky me…
The reunion with my cousins was a short one, but it was sweet…
I found out a couple of interesting thing and family gossips~~~ but no need to delve about that here..
We stayed for 3 days at kg. from Sunday too Wednesday, sorry, 4 days…. I'm not that good at calculating days spent..TT_TT
And then, we're off to….
KELANTAN!!!
It took us a whole day to reach Kelantan…
Partly because of the fact that we took the scenic route [i.e. driving] to Kelantan… the other method by flight[money..]
So, the trip took us through the Titiwangsa mountain range… a very long and windy dizzying road, not to be taken by people have a queasy stomachs and no snacks like me...
TT_TT [I get carsick too often]
We arrived in Kota Bharu 8 hour later…BTW, we stayed at a homestay… It was decent and had 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room. It costs RM180 per night…
Two bedroom was fully air-conditioned…the other had a fan..
the best thing about KELANTAN is the PEOPLE...
they're all VERY FRIENDLY and HELPFUL.... and best of all, THEY'RE DOWN TO EARTH...
hehe... after spending 2 days roaming the city, eating and buying stuff...
We're off to
TERENGGANU!!!!
It took us 2-3 hours to reach Pak Cik Hamzah's (dad's friend) place....
He was very friendly, helpful and let us stay at his homestay for free...
Terengganu~~~ there's the food, place and things to see n buy....
Batik and songket~~~
basically, at the end of the day(week)...
I've found out that kat Malaysia ni banyak tempat yg menarik and that we shouldn't let other people's experience cloud our judgement (beats me how I ever got this in the first place)
hehe... till next time..
p/s: I'll be posting about UKM KL next time...
